Hospital Corner


I spent several hours hanging around a hospital room yesterday (I wasn't the patient). Eventually I got tired of reading Moby Dick to pass the time, and made this sketch on my iPhone.
The clock on the wall really did read 99:59, that's not artistic license.

Psycho KLR



My friend's industrial motorcycle. Having spent a lot of time operating industrial machines, I personally wouldn't want my motorcycle to look like work, but to each their own. I spent a lot of time looking at this bike on my recent adventures. I almost miss the ugly thing.

Giant



"I'll be a pharoah soon
Rule from some golden tomb
Things will be different then
The sun will rise from here
Then I'll be ten feet tall
And you'll be nothing at all"

Trail


Just a real quick one as I'm about to leave on vacation. I wouldn't have even bothered,  but this weeks Illustration Friday topic of "Trail" was too perfect to ignore.

I'm about to go motorcycling across the United States, following the trail of one C.K. Shepherd, who rode across the country on his motorcycle after he came back from World War One, back in 1919. He documented his journey with the book Across America By Motor-Cycle, which you can find, free of charge, on Archive.org. And as we follow his trail, our crossing will be documented by my good friend Chris, at acrossamericabymotorcycle.blogspot.com

I'll probably do some sketching on the journey, and I may update from the road, but for now, no promises.

Until next,
Rod
